Weekend Wanderers: Purgatory Trail

I have decided to start a "Weekend Wanderers" feature, where every Friday I will post a short hike or activity to enjoy this weekend with friends, family and loved ones.

This weekend, try out the Purgatory Trail!

This trail is located at the North Carolina Zoo in Asheboro, NC.  As you come into the NC Zoo, look for the North American parking lot and head to the north end, where the trail begins.

The trail is broken up into sections, with the first 1/8th of a mile being a wide paved path before the trail continues on for another 1 1/8 miles.  There is also the option to split off of the main trail and follow the mile long trail, Moonshine Run.

Pack a picnic for before or after your hike, or make it a day and enjoy part of the Zoo as well!
